Front/rear park assist
The park assist system(s) are designed to assist you when driving into parking spaces, garages, etc. They utilize
ultrasound sensors located in the bumpers to measure the distance to a vehicle or other object, or a person who may be
close to the front or rear of the vehicle.
When is park assist active?
Front: the system is active from the time the engine is started until the car exceeds a speed of approximately 10 mph
(15 km/h).
Rear: when the engine is running and reverse gear is selected.
NOTE:
If the vehicle is equipped with front and rear park assist, both systems will either be activated or deactivated
together. They cannot be used separately.
The indicator light in the button (see the illustration on page 31) will light up to indicate that park assist system(s)
are activated.
When park assist is actively working:
1. The audio system's volume will be reduced.
2. An intermittent signal will be audible from the speakers to indicate that you are approaching a person, object,
parked vehicle, etc.
The signals begin when the distance between the bumper and the object is:
Rear: approximately 5 feet (1.5 meters)
Front: approximately 2.5 ft (0.8 meters)
3. At a distance of approximately 1 foot (30 cm), the signal will become constant.
Deactivating the system(s)
Press the Park assist button on the center console (see page 33) to temporarily deactivate the system(s).
The indicator light in the button will go out when the system(s) have been deactivated.
If the vehicle is equipped with front and rear park assist, both systems will be deactivated by pressing the button.
NOTE:
It may be necessary to deactivate one or both of the park assist systems in certain cases.
Rear park assist: towing a trailer, carrying bicycles in a rear-mounted carrier, etc, could trigger the rear park assist
system's sensors.
Front park assist: it may not be possible to combine auxiliary headlights and front park assist since these lights
could trigger the system's sensors.

run flat tires.
Tires of this type have specially reinforced sidewalls that make it possible to continue driving in the event of a drop in
inflation pressure. Tires of this type are mounted on special rims.
NOTE: Self supporting run flat tires are only available in conjunction with TPMS.
If a self supporting run flat tire should lose inflation pressure, the yellow TPMS warning symbol (
) in the instrument
panel lights up to alert the driver, and a message will be shown in the text window in the instrument panel.
If this occurs, reduce vehicle speed to a maximum of 50 mph (80 km/h). The vehicle can be driven approximately 50
miles (80 km), or somewhat farther if the vehicle is not heavily loaded. The tire should be replaced as soon as
possible.
Hard braking and sudden steering maneuvers should be avoided.
In certain cases, it may be difficult to see which self supporting run flat tire is defective. To determine which tire is
damaged, check the inflation pressure of all four tires.
WARNING!
• Only specially trained persons should mount self supporting run flat tires.
• If self supporting run flat tires are mounted, the vehicle must be equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System.
• After a low pressure warning has been displayed, do not exceed 50 mph (80 km/h).
• Avoid severe cornering and hard braking, and minimize the distance traveled before replacing the self supporting
run flat tire.
• Self supporting run flat tires cannot be repaired. They must be replaced if damaged or punctured.

Tire designations
Federal law mandates that tire manufacturers place standardized information on the sidewall of all tires (see the
illustration).
The following information is listed on the tire sidewall:
The tire designation (the following figures are examples of a tire designation):
1. 215: the width of the tire (in millimeters) from sidewall edge to sidewall edge. The larger the number, the wider the
tire.

Replacing bulbs
When replacing bulbs, keep the following points in mind:
• Never touch the glass of bulbs with your fingers. Grease and oils from your fingers vaporize in the heat and will
leave a deposit on the reflector, which will damage it.
• The optional Bi -Xenon headlight bulbs contain trace amounts of mercury. These bulbs should always be disposed of
by an authorized Volvo retailer.
• Certain bulbs not listed here should only be replaced by an authorized Volvo service technician.

Replacing bulbs at the front of the vehicle
All front bulbs (except the optional front fog lights) are replaced from the engine compartment.
WARNING!
Bi -Xenon headlights (option) - due to the high voltage used by these headlights, these bulbs should only be replaced
by an authorized Volvo service technician.

Location of the bulbs in the headlight housing
*
1. Side marker light
2. Turn signal
3. Low beam headlight/Parking light
4. High beam headlight
Certain models may have a plastic tube that may hinder access to the bulbs. This tube can be broken off and discarded.
*Models with halogen headlights only
pg. 142 Replacing bulbs

Low beam headlight
Removing the defective bulb:
1. Switch off the headlights and turn the ignition switch to position 0.
2. Remove the plastic cover.
3. Disconnect the wiring connector.
4. Loosen the retaining spring by first moving it to the right and then moving it outward and downward, out of the
way.
5. Pull out the defective bulb.
Installing the new bulb:
1. Insert the new bulb, without touching the glass, with the guide lug upward. The bulb will only seat properly in this
position.
2. Move the retaining spring up and push it slightly to the left until it seats properly.
3. Reconnect the wiring connector.
4. Reinstall the plastic cover.
NOTE: If the vertical aim of your headlights needs to be adjusted for any reason (e.g., towing a trailer for extended
periods), this should be done by an authorized Volvo retailer.
